Right now we have “home” on our mind at Dry Bones. I mean, it’s a pretty normal thing for us to be thinking about “homelessness,” but thinking extensively about “home” is another matter. It is the theme of our fundraiser, the theme of our conversations, and the theme of our personal work.

We recently hosted a celebration and fundraising event in downtown Denver. Many of you attended and were able to see and meet Guyia, Mike, and Danny. For those of you who missed it, we invite you to watch this video.

Guyia, Mike, and Danny boldly share the narratives they once lived from before believing in and discovering a new one. It is evident that our core narrative shapes so many aspects of our lives.

Dry Bones’ aim is to learn to live from and then inspire belief in a life-giving, redeeming, and beautiful new narrative.

Royalty, by Dry Bones former staff member, Zach Smith, was written after a very informal lunch with a friend living on the streets. During this lunch, Zach and Robbie shared chili cheese dogs with their friend who is addicted to heroin. For a while, they were able to remind her of her immeasurable value and treat her as royalty. Thanks, Zach, for sharing your song with us.

The video footage in the background is of our good friend’s old bridge squat (no longer being used). Thanks, S*****, for sharing your former home with us and letting others see a different side of life.

Dry Bones staff and volunteers are committed to serving the large population of homeless teens and young adults living in downtown Denver. The youth who live on the streets of Denver range in age from 12 into their mid-twenties. Dry Bones connects these young people with resources, nutrition, entertainment, and new friends.
